The Domestic Money Oues,,on.

The relation of money is but one of the
many relations that should feel the benign
and shaping touch of woman. 1t is chiefly
important because of its ministering power,
because it is servant of servants to its breth-
rem. 1t is not to be disposed of by setting
up separate purse, any more than by set
ting up separate child. If man counts
a woman fit to be the mother of his chill
dren, it is little that she should be fit to
exPend money for their rearing If a man
is gentle and soft enough to come into
tender contact with his little chiflren, he
must be malleable enough to be shaped
Alright in regard to the money that they
and their mother require. OF course, if a
man is over-brutal and the woman over
silly, there must be disaster, whether
there be one purse or twenty or none.
There may well be women who have no
sense about money, just rs there are women
who do not know how to bring up chill
dren. 1t is a defect of character. Such
women are failure in proportion TO their
defects and their defective work, it cannot
be denied, is evil. But if both husband
and wife are of this common type, honest,
sincere, devoted and fairly sensible, pa
tient, continuous and not unloyely process
of consultation and Cancellation and COM
promise will bring them eventually into a
clear understanding of relative values.-

A story of Bishop Simpson.

An incident showing his gifts is related
by his uncle. Late one Saturday night he
arrived at town in the mountainous re-
gions of Pennsylvania, where he was a
total stranger. The next morning he made
his way to the Methodist Church and ac-
eosted the pastor, telling him he was Il
brother in the ministry. Simpson being
extremely awkward and plain in appear
ance, the pastor was half inclined to omit
the courtesy due 4 brother preacher. of
asking him to deliver sermon If he in
quired of the bishop as to his name he
must have failed to catch it, for he GER
talnly had no idea to whom he was speak
ing. His request for the stranger to preach
was therefore expressed in the most formal
and constrained manner. The stranger
readily agreed to fill the pulpit. and the
pastors chagrin was evident, as he resigned
himself to his fate. The bishop preached
one of his powerful sermons, and every
body IN the audience whispered to his
neighbor, "Who is hep Before he had
taken his seat the pastor had him by the
hand. What did you say your name
was p Simpson" What Not the
bishop "That is what they call me-
The minister instantly sprang to his feet
and shouted. You have Just had the
privilege of listening to Bishop Simpson.

To whom would heavens doors so freely open
As 10 a little child,
Who stands with timid feet upon its threshold
Lovely and indebted?
An such an one, of late, was lowly lying,
With fast recediDg breath
Over her face the first, last shadow falling
She was afraid Of death.
Her loved one said, "Oh. do not fear to enter
That land. so wide and fair
To all their words of cheer she could but an
swer,
Il do not know them there p
But, even as she spoke, her hands were lifted
In sudden, sweet surprise;
And the reflection OF some dawning spiendor
lllumed her wondering eyes.
No longer clinging to her tender watchers,
And darkened by their woe,
She looked as il she saw some loved one beckon
And was in haste to go.
What she beheld we saw not. and her rapture
Our hearts not yet might share
But with last, bright smile she whispered
gladly,
They are not strangers there

A WAR-DANCE BY PLANET MENUS
\ correspondent of the Pioneer Haa gives
the following account of facts as witnessed
by myself, wife and two Mohammedan serv-
ants, all four seing the phenomenon stimuli
taneously, and not for Il minute or so, but
for upward of an hour At about $50
O'Clock on the evening of May 18th. while
sitting at dinner, one of my khitmutgars
came in from the outside and said. Sir.
Just step outside and see what a tamasha is
taking place with the star Sook-the native
name for Venus. Out we went, and sure
enough, there was Venus, large and bright,
but. strange to say, falling two, three and
four feet at time, then oscillating from
right to left; sometimes dashing to
the right and then to the left
several feet at time. These move
ments continued in rapid success
sion, and were plainly apparent to all at
once; but this was not all. Venus, when
we first saw her, was, say, apparently some
400 yards above the horizon. While
watching her We observed star (some two
yards, to look at) above, suddenly fall into
Venus and there remain We were
amazed. The natives exclaimed: THE
last day is at hand and soon. We watched
Venus rapidly descending until she dipped
the horizon. At times She appeared her
usual size and quite bright, then again
hardly visible. Perhaps the phenomenon
described can be explained by some one
versed in astronomy. ] again repeat that
what has been described was seen by N.Y.

A BEAR VINO MADE HIMsELF AT
HoME.-One Sunday evening recently as
Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander Henning, of Lot
10, Con. 8, Euphrasia, were returning from
church they were startled by black bear,
which was apparently making himself at
home about the dwelling, and left quite
leisurely on the approach of the family
The following evening the bear again APP
peared, and with undaunted boldness
strolled up to the house, drank milk from
dish near the door, then went to the
milk-house, which stands few feet from
the dwelling, where he pushed the partly
opened door in and entered, there drinking
a crock Of cream and pail of fresh milk
from thence he walked around to the front
of the house, got up with his paws on the
window sill and looked in. Mr.. Henning
had no firearms, and hesitated to make an
attack; but when the animal had left he
summoned a couple of his neighbors, and,
arming themselves, they waited for his
return, and shot him before he was able to
secure his next meal-Toronto Globe.

A heavy veil hangs DER the depths below
And by its darkened folds it hides from sight
The purple vineyards and the brooklet's flow;
The orchards pendent with their luscious fruit ;

The yellow corn, like soldiers stern and mute
The jasmine climbing DER the cottage wall.

Speed his swift arrows tipped with golden

Dispensing warmth and beauty on their way,
